I have too many bikes. My wife and I are trying to cut back on furniture, belongings of all kinds in preparation for a retirement move. That includes some of my bikes. I've lowered my price for any of these from $1800 to $1500. Somebody out there is going to get a really good deal.

Bikes for sale are:

RANS Screamer with Draftmaster carrier

Hp Velo StreetMachine

Schlitter Encore

Catrike Expedition

Yes Mr Wizard. The Encore is still available. My record of not being able to sell ice cubes to Amazonians or fire to Eskimos is in tact. I will be coming to Dallas soon. If you'd like so see the Encore I can bring it. Or I can bring it to the Dallas Senior Games if you are coming to that. Let me know.

For every mile of road there's two miles of ditch.

I'd rather be sorry for something I did than for something I didn't do.

Actually I'm heading to the Pactour in AZ week after next, so I'm going to miss the DSG (which is really a shame in timing)  I was thinking if its possible I could swing by Abiline (thats where I remember you living)  on the way out or back .. as I basically have to drive right through.   But if you are in dallas next week we can work something else out ..

That's the way it goes out here in Abilene......nobody comes out there unless they are on their way somewhere else! I'd love to have you swing by to see the Encore and test drive it, Mr. Wizard!!! Let me know....

All except for that "prettiest town I've ever seen" part. Pretty ugly is more like it. We like to say IT'S THE PEOPLE! Smiley

Well I guess I deleted the original post. Was going to start all over again. Listen, who wouldn't want to buy an Encore for $1500??? That is the most reasonable price I've ever come across, even if I do say so myself. It is a very versatile bike--can be adjusted for pleasure riding or cranked back for flat out racing. My fastest Strava segment on a flat is 30.9mph with the wind. And I have chicken legs compared to some of you behemoths!  
I've also solved the one thing that plagues many Encore pilots--hands having to have a death grip on the handles. With that solved, it is very comfy to ride for hours and hours with no hand fatigue.
So, C'mon man!!!

Reever, have you put this Encore on BROL? I don't think you would have any trouble selling it there for your asking price. I would be very tempted, but I just spent all my play money on the NoCom, that I can't ride still!

As you can tell by my deleting the original post here, I am not a computer genius. I don't have the slightest idea how to put an ad on BROL.

If not registered then register to Bentrideronline.com. Go to classified-bikes and list your bike just like you did here. You have to have so many posts before you can add a link or pictures. If you list it here or Craigslist, someone will probably post the link and pictures for you. If you have a young grand kid they will show you how! Smiley My 4 & 6 year old grandsons show me stuff all the time on my computer.

I'm not all that eager to sell the thing. If it sells, it's gonna have to sell itself.

Jason,
 
I read your text while out on a ride and then it disappeared. As far as I can remember you asked me how tall I was and how many miles I have on it. I'm a very short legged 6'2" ..... 45" X seam. I can't say exactly how many miles I've got on it. One HHH 100 in 4:41 and one trip from Chula Vista, CA to Nashville TN that was @2800 miles.  The bike is very adjustable and very versatile--very well engineered.
